I always loved the idea of learning martial arts but it wasn't until I was in my 20s that I really started doing it and taking up karate.

I looked at longevity in show business when I was about 13 and the people who seemed to have longevity were the ones who'd spent quite a bit of time learning about what they were doing before they made it.

I make personal appearances around the country. I'm starting a book tour now and I may be coming to Toronto with the Learning Annex which I'm doing all through the United States so that may come up just before Christmas.

Learning by doing peer-to-peer teaching and computer simulation are all part of the same equation.

Doing a documentary is about discovering being open learning and following curiosity.

Hopefully with each thing that you do you're learning something you're growing and you're pushing yourself a little harder in some way or another. So I think you'd be in real trouble if each new thing that you create didn't feel like 'Oh wow. I feel like I'm doing something a little different this time.'

I've always had better luck learning things on my own. And I really love the challenge of doing it yourself and kind of being alone against the system.

I'm social and I meet people and talk to people but I'm not looking for the ideal person to fit my mold and to raise my family with yet. I'm just kind of doing my thing and learning from the people I'm around and who I cross paths with.

So there was something of a learning curve with doing your own thing and people seeing you outside of the band. I mean people have never really heard my voice before - or heard a whole record of mine before. So it was a completely new experience.

I had actually been on tour in Japan and I had my own world tour that I was doing. I was used to doing a show for an hour so I was always learning choreography.

There's no media training. In cooking school there's not even manager training. You learn the fundamentals of cooking. Everything else is learning by doing.

Again the American people expect us to do what they are doing. It's tightening the belt it's learning how to do more with less. That's a reality today and we've got to do that in order to get the private sector growing.

I view life as a learning experience. It is not so much all about music it is about what happens when you are doing the music.

I feel like I'm still learning a lot. I think there's a tendency for people who are just doing their first couple of films that I see now where they seem to be really resentful of the technical limitations that come along with filmmaking.

I never refused an autograph never refused to buy someone a drink. Now I'm learning to say I've got other things on instead of doing it and wondering why.

I'm always learning from experiences because each one is different and there are different players involved in the project at the time with their own way of doing things.

I'm going from doing all of the work to having to delegate the work - which is almost harder for me than doing the work myself. I'm a lousy delegator but I'm learning.
